Places to stay/things to do in Southport!

My friend is going to Southport with her daughters (7 & 9) and would like to find somewhere, maybe a B&B to stay for a couple of nights this weekend.

I use to live there so I know how lovely it is but don't know about accomadation, can anyone point me in the direction of anywhere decent please? :j

Also, she is after ideas for things to do while she is there, I have suggested Pleasureland, bowling and the cinema, but could do with some more suggestions and maybe money off vouchers??

Thanks in advance!!

    crazy golf is pretty reasonable to while away an hour or so

    b+m bargains on lord street is worth alook. she can probably get some cheap outdoor toys etc for kids and then get on the beach as its never crowded and the seas always out!
    plenty of open spaces for picnics/playing on the front
    loads of shops!!!!!
